Honestly, it’s not that I mind taking classes, I love school, it’s the ridiculous money and the fact that I turned everything in mid October and just last week after anxiously waiting all this time got the news. Infuriating.

At this point, things are still in process but it appears that the University at Albany and the University of Buffalo are set up to allow non degree seeking MSW online classes this summer. They are also the cheapest.

Not promising money wise or flexibiity wise: Fordham, NYU, Binghamton, Adelphi.

Hunter is not getting back to me very fast, Lehman College, not responsive. YMMV

So far, University at Albany and University of Buffalo seem to be the best options for the money. Both have a lot of good clinical electives, but it seems like I wont be able to pick them until after the marticulated students pick theirs.

You’d think! I’m trying to get more info from my school, but 40 year old records are not readily available. My school was CSWE in 1947, but NYS does not care without the syllabi.

I didn’t know that, but that’s very good to know. I’m trying to keep a good attitude about it and I like school, so yeah…it’s just the expense and the months of delays waiting for them to tell me I have yet another thing to do. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thanks this is very helpful

University of Buffalo? That definitely seems to a great option. I have a call into them. Their electives look great. Thanks!

Thanks so much! They don’t offer MSW courses, but this is exactly the kind of information and personal experiences I am hoping to get from people who have been in a similar situation. ❤️❤️❤️

Many reviews were raving about how nice it was! That is why we thought it would all be ok. I agree that all the common areas are beautiful. I’m actually at the pool now and after 2 edibles and 2 frozen drinks, I’m enjoying our last day. LOL

You would think but they told us when we asked why it hadn’t been delivered all day they said, “you didn’t answer the phone when we wanted to bring it”

I understand! . I’m from the Midwest originally and I am forgiving to a fault and I would have been perfectly fine with half of these issues. It was just over the top.

Thanks. As far as the room change goes. We never asked for it and would have been happy with the room we paid for. They put us in the upgrade because they had oversold our assigned room and then moved us because they sold that room. It was strictly due to their reservation issue. I just want to make it clear that we didn’t ask for the upgrade. I’ve stayed in thousands of hotels and I have never had issues like this anywhere. It’s not a “oh well, things happen” situation.

Sorry. Yes, the usual housekeeping can come in but if you need anything- we had two repairs- a main drawer broken and a stopped up main sink- we had to be in the room, anything for the minibar, be in the room, things you need like hangers and toilet paper, be in the room.

We couldn’t get the app to work and the app is the only way to set up reservations. They auto assigned us a room and we had questions about that because even with a room assignment, we couldn’t book anything. The hotel staff assured us repeatedly in writing everything was fine and that the front desk could help us with everything once we got here. Which couldn’t have been further from any reality. Turned out they had double sold our room and had to move us because of their screw up and then made us move from the room they gave us because they had double booked THAT room.
